First time - will definitely be the last

Not much positive I can say about this course:
- driving range was in complete disrepair, virtually no grass to hit from and the few available mats were badly with and torn (maximum length you could hit was 165 yards)....AND they had the audacity to charge us $12 for two buckets of balls...range was so bad, we left most balls at range without hitting them.
- course conditions were atrocious, most fairways featured multiple large clumps of crab grass growing that looked like Outback “Bloomin’ Onions)
- most tee boxes were a mess, a few had grass that looked like they hadn’t been mowed for weeks,
- pace of play was horrendous, we finally quit after 12 holes because there were the third groups on 13 with the first group still nowhere near the green.
- putting surfaces were decent but nothing special (this is the closest I can come to saying something positive)
- stopped into pro shop to express our disappointment, The individual behind the counter became defensive and belligerent almost immediately. He completely dismissed our complaints and began yelling at us “you’re the first complaint I ever heard in two years “. I told him that the course was likely the worst I’ve played in 35 years of golf...then he REALLY began yelling AND cursing at us - actually followed us out to the parking lot continuing to yell and curse.
- easily the worst course I’ve ever played.
- easily the most inappropriate behavior I’ve ever seen displayed by a pro shop staff member ever....
- hot deal was $30/person...a complete waste of money...
- will never return. Would not play this course again for free

Nice course - pace of play could be better

First time playing the course. I played with my son who lives in the area. We both found it to be an enjoyable course to play. Fairways & greens were in very good condition but some of the bunkers were in need of more sand and some of the tee boxes were pretty chewed up. Fairly straight forward tee to green - generous landing areas. I found the greens complexes fair but challenging - some significant slopes demand you land the ball in the correct segment of the green or you're looking at a 3 putt. We were stuck behind a foursome that was rather slow (poor etiquette - ignored several opportunities to allow our threesome to play through) and rangers seemed unfazed that the group was at least a hole out of position. All things considered, I look forward to playing it again with my son!
